William Aberle, who's been renting boats to fishermen at the wood boat livery for some! time now, decided to try his luck last Sunday.
He's been telling people just; where to KO and what bait to use and he figured he'd brush up a little.
So he rowed down to the west end of Lake Wingra and anchored in the deep water just off the weed beds and went to casting. He used a Johnson Caper on a 15-pound test line.
The Caper was going fairly deep, being a heavy plug, when ...Bang! He'd hooked into something big!
Fifteen minutes later he hauled
